Men's Everyday Shirts: Dependable Navy, White and Grey Staples
The Bestsellers shirt edit is a short, practical set of everyday shirts you can wear on repeat. It is mostly solids in navy, white, grey, green and plum, plus a couple of checks, an aqua stripe and a white print. Fabrics include cotton, cotton blends, cotton-linen, linen and a polyester blend, mostly in a regular fit, from ₹2,199.
A working week from one edit
These shirts are easy to plan around because they mix with almost anything. One way to use them:
- Monday: the white solid in cotton blend, tucked into navy trousers.
- Tuesday: the navy linen shirt, for a hot day with back-to-back meetings.
- Wednesday: the aqua stripe in cotton, with grey or beige trousers.
- Thursday: the dark grey or plum solid, with black trousers for a sharper look.
- Friday: the chocolate melange check, untucked over jeans.
Swap the trousers and shoes, and the same five shirts give you a second week of outfits without repeating a look.
Solid, check or stripe?
Solids are the backbone here, and they are the safest buy if you need shirts for work. Choose a check if your office is relaxed or you want one shirt that moves from desk to dinner. The aqua stripe is the light, summery option, and the white printed shirt is the one to keep for evenings and holidays. If you only buy two, take the white solid and the navy linen: between them they cover meetings, hot days and dinners. The green solid is the easy weekend colour, good with beige trousers or blue jeans.
Which fit to pick
Most shirts here are regular fit, with room through the chest for long days at a desk. The white print is slim fit, so size as you normally would if you like a closer cut. The navy cotton-linen shirt is a classic fit, the roomiest option, which keeps air moving on humid days.
